Canton Township
Canton Township is metropolitan Detroit's fastest growing residential community. Ford Road [M-153] bisects the township on the north in an east-west direction and is Canton's main commercial corridor. Agriculture, which was the predominant use throughout the township several decades ago, is now found only on the western edge of the community. Most of the Township's industrial development is located along I-275 in the north and in the south along Michigan Avenue [US-12], which is a major east - west corridor. A Conrail line parallels US-12.Interstate 275 Freeway runs north-south along the eastern edge of Canton with office, research and industrial uses abutting the highway. Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport is only 7-1/2 miles to the southeast. Willow Run Airport, a predominately freight oriented airport, is only one mile to the south. :: detroit metropolitan airport » ::
